NPCRMERP E-Path Pilot Project WorkgroupThe E-Path Pilot Project Workgroup is a collaboration between CDC's National Program of Cancer Registries (NPCR), LabCorp, Inc., CDC's Public Health Information Network, and 18 state central cancer registries, including Alabama, Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Michigan, Missouri, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia. States Participating in E-Path Pilot Project This workgroup will test electronic anatomical pathology reporting from a national laboratory to state central cancer registries. This workgroup will use the recently approved standard in the NAACCR Volume V Standard for Pathology Laboratory Electronic Reporting* and the business rules defined in the draft NAACCR ePath Reporting Process Guide. The workgroup will explore the feasibility of integrating electronic pathology reporting for cancer registries into the infrastructure for electronic laboratory reporting of communicable diseases and biosurveillance. This workgroup can help the cancer registry community use consistent standards for electronic pathology reporting that will improve the completeness, timeliness, and quality of cancer registry data. A Web conference is held every second Thursday of the month, and minutes are sent out the following Thursday. Recent Accomplishments
